Agricultural Notes.

Make certain that the barn yard is
kept clean, otherwise the stock will be
compelled to stay in their stalls and be
deprived of fresh air.
To make a granary rat-proof sur
round it with two thicknesses of hem
lock board, breaking joints, and no
rat or mouse will gnaw through.
1t is much better for hogs to run in
clover and keep clean than to wsllow
in filth in pens or contracted yards
that pollute the air as far as stencil
can reach.
Near Sidell, Ill, horses are dying by
the score from a disease something
similar to cancer. The first place
attacked is on the throat, and from
the moment the eating process COM
mences it takes only few days for the
disease to cause death. The farmers
there are alarmed at the progress the
disease is making. No remedy has
vet been found that will either relieve
the beast dying or will cure the dis
ease.
Before putting up new pork it is
very important to see that the barrel
is perfectly sweet. The germs of decay
if not entirely destroyed rapidly pro-
pagate when fresh material Is given
them to work on. Even salt in un-
limited quantities will not save pork
if the barrel is in any way out of order.

DeveIopment of Cholera.

NJ. Thoinnot is of the opinion that chol era, in its progressive stage, has marked tendency to follow the banks of rivers and water courses, and that it's develop ment is usually more frequent aud re. mArkable along the smaller streams and rivers. Water, in fact, is, he alleges, a powerful medium in propagating the dis ease. whether at short or at great dis tances. Cholera develops itself around wells and cisterns, when the water has been polluted by the cholera germ, and iI has been observed that if there are two sorts of drinkable water in country, the one contaminated and the other not, chOl era will attack those who use the first and snare those who use the second. Giver also two or more centers of population suffering from cholera, it will be found other conditions of health being equal that the victims to the disease are les numerous where the best potable water i: 10 be had.-Cleveland Leader.

A VISIT TO GEORGE ELIOT.

Olive Harper's Pen Picture of the Noted
 Novelist-Not A Handsome Woman.
 While we were sitting in the reception room tall gentleman with a very smooth, low voice came in and said that George Eliot was quite indispOsed that day, and that she would receive us in spite of that fact, knowing that the lady had come so far for that purpose. ..his gentleman was probably Mir. Lewes, though he did not say so. We were then led into a still darker and more sunless room, which was fitted up as a study. In this room, seated before glowing fire, though it was May. in great easy chair and wrapped and bundled up in a fieecy white shawl, was the famous woman. She had . sort of nubia, also of white wool. thrown over her head, and the ends held under the shawl Her figure was all curled up in the chair, so that it was impossible to judge of her height or form, but l judged her to be rather under the medium height and very thin, as her hands were thin, long and bOny. Her face was rather thin and very long, with the under jaw setting out in a very unlOvely manner. Her eyes were deep set. and her mouth and nose inde- scribable, but very ugly in shape. Though her features bore the undeniable stamp of rare intellectually, they were cold and unsympathetic.
 Her voice was clear. and every word was distinct, though she spoke in a low tone, and her eyes showed very little change as she spoke, as if she had no deep sympathy, or, rather, as if she did not care tO waste such a sentiment on any one but her fic- titiOus characters. Her conversation lacked warmth or vitality, though her apathetic manner may have been due tC weakness. Somehow she managed 10 con- vey the impression that her mind was too great for her body, and that she was physically wasting while her mental fac ulties burned too brightly.
 In the course of conversation she said that she thought out her work while rest ing bodily, and then in the forenoon, while her physical condition was at its best, she wrote it down, rarely writing over sixty lines a day. After she had finished one of her books she immedi- ately left the city: and went travelling for several months before she could re- cuperate her strength. During the visit she was gentle but not sympathetic was not silent nor talkative, and though, as far as l was concerned. l did not find any womanly charm about her 10 love, was very glad to have seen 50 famous a woman. She kindly invited us Co visit her again upon my return from the con tinent. but before l came back Mir. Lewes was dead, and I ueyer saw her again. Olive Harper in New York Mail and Express.

TIE items of the general spPropris- tion bill of the Fourteenth Legislative Assembly are not correctly published bv the administration organ. Several important items are omitted, in order that a marked contrast may be made with the liberal appropriations of for mer legislatures. While We heartily condemn such gross extravsgances as have been shown by former legislatures, we equally condemn all attempts to dis tort the facts of record for partisan buncome or personal glory.

LIFE m Dakota IS not a perpetual banquet of pleasure. An occasional cy- clone in spring or fall varies the mono- tony of winter Slizzsrds or sumner drouth, and adds a spice of variety to human existence and strife against the other natural obstacles to prosperity. This ordinary state of affairs has evi. dently been turing the venturesome emiGrants from the more eastern states jus. to seize upon a fine opportunity to show them what Dakota can do when if wants to exert its recognized abilities. Just now 1t has added widespread foods and ice gorges to its blizzards, and along the Yellowstone, LIttle Missouri, Prior and other rivers, the waters are spread across the plains and the destruction to property of all kinds sud even to life has been terrible. Towns are inundated and tioRting buildings and haystacks often reveal to rescuIng parties the presence of benumbed and destitute human beings exposed to the terrors of d binding blizzard with snow aud sleet accompaniment. There are ice gor2es upon all the streams, and when they give way, they are expected to add greater destruction to that already Ec. complished, and the widespread disaster will entail m amount of suffering thnt is appalling to contemplate. When such scenes are contrRsted with the perpetual springtime ID Anzons. where neither floods, ice Rorges, cyclones. blizzards. drouth nor suffering IS known, We ought to feel thankful that We are so greatly blest.

 And how could country editors pay for them at the rate of ten dollars per an nun? They are worth every cent of It.

One day he took a Ian caster avenue car for the city, carrying iI his hand a basket of superb white grapes raised in his own greenhouse. Old Billy W. sat in one corner of the car and pOol mother with sickly child in her lap sat iI the corner opposite. The child looked al the grapes wistfully as the car rolled on, square after square. At last the old man, in a tone of rasping curiosity, asked the child where she was going.
 ''To the park, sir, to see the grass and the birds. "
 DO you like gra2ess''
 ''Yes, sir," and the pale little face frightened up as the child half rose from her mothers lap.
